puck a building lass accordingly; and , en;
and will,priiffiably be . completed, in the course
of the ensuing spring..., It has been'soarrand
ed, that while the PompLnywill possess ample
accommodations' on tbe second Or, the re-'
maincler of the' building may' be rented for
offices, dre., andiat rents that wilt. probably
'cover the coat of the property for ground 'rent,
interest and taxes • thus placing the Compa
ny in 11, very cent ral position, - with fell aecom
nffideidni, and probably rent free:: .
But even if ;this last-named advantage
should not follow the *security which will be
obtained by ale fire-proof- closets, for the
deposit of value le •records of title, surveys,
releases, which are now . lodped in sever
al of the offices on the line,;as wen, as in the
office at Philadelp hia , exposed to the casual
ties of fire, wontfundoubtedly be, a full

• The edifice is a substantial one, and 'is
charaCterized •by an appropriate, and not e
very costly architectural design, sufficient to
'mark it as 'a public buildingl and to invite de
simble tenants. i
The increase of the boats used in our trade,
had also made it Mciisary to provide regular
wharfage-berths for such of them as were
waiting clearanees from Fairmount locks;
and tor this purpPse, a lot of ground has been
taken up on groUnd rent, situated near the
Suspension Bridge, with a valuable and avail
able front on Callowhill street, which may be
sold if deemed eqedient, without impairing
the value to us of the wharf front. '
During the par, the Trustees• of the
Boat Loan have prosured 40 new railroad
coal cars, 60 coal barges, and-one Locotne
tive Engine. The total cost of these was
$196,874 64, of It Lich $54,807 14 t'enaiii
paid ; which, 'with the instalment of the prin
cipal of the Boati, Loan .of 1850, payable in
1855, it is estimated will be met, by the pay
ments to be mad§ by theboatmen, on account
of their leases. i . •
T c he•affairs of the Company seem now to
4y4leacheill that point where it would be
prof to establish some fixed financial policy.
While its trade was limited by a revenue that
ust enabled it to ;.pap interest and: leiperises,
'it might have heeti deemed premature to dis
cuss the propriety of dischargin& any part of
the principal of ifs debts.. ' But tt. seems ap :
propriate now to !call your 'attention to the
subject. Conipany burthened with a fund
ed debt, ean`be tifnly-independent in its
cv and action, or positively secure for its
stockholders: • •
Casualties which sometimes occur, andleid
to a suspension of clear income, will be met
and borne.by stockholders, but not by teen-%
holders, except under v,ery peculiar and dis
tressing circumstances. •
Every, Company shOuld therefore aini•to
free itself from debt, and to set apart; ; every :
year, some sum out of its, earnings for such a
purpose. To thei,exteut that such earnings
are thus applied, eta debt discharged, a stock
dividend fund should be opened, and-the
amount at its credit, at proper times, be disl
tributed among the stockholders. r
• -The Mana,gers,itherefore, recorernend that,
the stockholders and loanholders 'should de
clare by a reselltion, their approbation of
this principle in She fiscal concerns of the
Company, and . their desire that the, Managers will take : such measures as gill sect& its ap
plication to a reduction of debt, in, the next
and cVery ensuing year.
They would again urge the propriety of„ffi
creming the Contingent Fund by the addition
of its annual income, until fhe sum of two
hundred thousand dollars be accumulated.
As the computfid profits of the year leavi.n
sum equal to five ;per cent. on the amountlof
the Preferred Stock, the Managers have pas
sed a resolution, authoriz:ing distribution of
Boat Loan . to that extent; to'be made to the
holders of the Preferred Stock, as• they now,
stand- registered, and be deliverable on the
first'day of February next. The certificate,sii
for this,lean, to bear interest. at the rate of
six per cent. per annum, from 'the' first day Of
January, 185, to dm payable semi-annually,
on the first day. of! May 'and 'November, and
the principal to be reimbursed in . five instal
ments of twenty 'per cent. eat+ on. the fi rst
day of . November 859, 1860 , 1 861, 1862, and
1863, and to be secured by the like tmsta and
conditions as the Seat Loan, of 1850- It is
believed, that elder the 'circumstances b
which the busines' of the past year was limit,'
ed, and with a proper estimate of the finan.
cial state of the Company, ibis will be more
satisfactOry.to all Uoneerted than attempt'
to 'pay . a, cash dividend; with money borrowed
at the'present currentrates.Of interest...

business;. and then
.we turn:away and listen,
and hear it . ,ringing through
,the room like's

sPirits of the*ind. How Much we owe. to
that sweet laugh I It turns the prose of our
life into poetry, it flings thoWers of sunshine

travelling ; it touches with light even our sleep,

'ln -the time 'Of Edward Elder i weaving
and embroidery were much practised. He
had his daughters taught tO use the, needle
:ind distaff., ;Indeed spinning was the coin
limn occupation of the Anglo-Saxon ladies.—
Alfred -ialtis will, calls the female portion of
his family, the "spinning side." 50,.t00, Eg
bert, when entailing his estates on his male
_attendantsto the exclusion of the females,
raid, "To tlii;speareide, and not to the opin-
die-side." Of the skill and industry of the
ancient spinsters,
we have an extraordinary
instance in the tapestry which is still preserved
in
.the Cathedral Of Bayeux. This. carious'
relic of antiquity is a coat linen web two hun
dred and foutteen feet long; and two broad,
on which wits embroidered the history of the
Conquest. It is snpposed td have been exe
cute: by English women,,under-the direction,
Of Matilda, wife of Williarta. Many of the
figures are without stockings, though none
-nr6-without shoes: which makes it probable
" that sheet Were more generally used than
stockings, in this period. The common peo
ple, for the most part, had do stockings, nor
'or any other covering on their legs, aid even
• the clergy 'celebrated. mass' with their legs
bire, till a laic was made against the practice .
in 785. Woixleashoet,which are now esteem
ed the marks: of indigence and misery, were
worn by the greatest princes. of Europe in the
ninth and tenth centuries, ae they are now
worn amongst the'weaveis of Lancashire.
